I don't know about anyone else but good lord this past work week was ridiculous. Time to relax now. I know we generally like football over B-ball but Army-Navy is the only game. So, how about some b-ball new.

It has been a long season for Big Ten basketball so far. I'm actually disappointed in the lack of ambition on RU's part. Yes, I get that they're rebuilding but at least play someone more interesting than Central Connecticut State. Hell, I'd do a series with Boston College.

No offense but we played Florida State and Rutgers needs a winning season desperately. Go 10-2 OOC and then see what the conference slate yields. I definitely see improvement from last year. 12 seasons since we made the NIT is ridiculous. I don't think you learn much from beating Coppin State or FDU, but it is better then me going to watch RU lose back to back games to St Bonaventure's and Lehigh in Thanksgiving week about a decade ago.

Very good weekend for Big Ten basketball. Rutgers comes back to win at home against Seton Hall. Indiana gets a good win against Notre Dame. Purdue finishes off Butler. Only blemishes were Illinois losing to New Mexico St. and Nebraska falling short against Kansas.

Penn State is making some interesting arguments down the stretch. They just swept Ohio State a couple of days ago. They're next playing Purdue, who is going through a bad stretch, including dropping a game at Wisconsin. Nebraska is also looking to sneak up as well and could be very dangerous in the tournament.

Cats not having near the kind of year that was hoped for after qualifying for the Tourney last year. back 2 back home losses, (ouch!) to MSU and MD absolutely need a final home win over Wisky and a final road win over Iowa (certainly dooable) to have any momentum for the conference tournament and hopefully the post season even if its NIT
